Cosmetics tycoon Ron Lauder to ‘re-examine’ financial support for UPenn over antisemitism concerns

News- US

http://youtu.be/skMQkKNVeD4 Ronald Lauder — heir to the Estee Lauder cosmetics empire and a major donor to the University of Pennsylvania — said he will “re-examine” his financial support to the Ivy League school over its weak response to antisemitism on campus, according to a letter obtained by The Post. NY Post Business reporter Lydia Monihan shares this story. In a Monday letter to UPenn President Liz Magill, Lauder slammed the university’s decision to host a controversial “Palestine Writes Literature Festival” last month — and noted that Lauder had personally traveled to Philadelphia to visit Magill on campus to urge her to cancel it. “I told you that those invited to the event had a history of not just strong anti-Israel bias, but outright antisemitism. You were already aware of m...

Biden appeared to read teleprompter instruction to ‘make it clear’ during national address

News- US

http://youtu.be/EJo8THIsRpI President Biden began his rare address to the nation from the Oval Office by staring aimlessly at the camera and stumbling over his words – and then seemingly reading his teleprompter instructions. The 80-year-old commander-in-chief looked around, seemingly unaware that he was on live, before he started to speak as he squinted in the glare of the lights. At one point, Biden appeared to read an autocue instruction to “make it clear” — similar to how last year he read out “repeat the line” in another speech. “We’ll have something that we do not seek — make it clear we do not seek — we do not seek to have American troops fighting in Russia,” he said. Biden later fumbled by stating that “you’ll all America” before correcting himself and saying, “You’re all Amer...

News- US

http://youtu.be/PnFSRWkv4Us Israel appeared to be readying its expected ground invasion of the Gaza Strip early Friday, with a large border town evacuated and fleets of tanks lining up on the border where hundreds of thousands of soldiers are already camped out. Israeli officials have been warning for days that it will soon launch its ground invasion, as they massed at least 300,000 troops along the border in response to Hamas’ surprise attack on Oct. 7, when the terrorist organization killed at least 1,400 people — mostly civilians — and took more than 200 others hostage, the Voice of America reports. Speaking to those troops Thursday, Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said they would soon see Gaza “from the inside. “Whoever sees Gaza from afar will soon see it from the inside,” h...

Travis King charged by the Army with desertion for defecting to North Korea

News- US

http://youtu.be/95XU65RkFXU The US Army has charged defector Travis King with several offenses including desertion for sprinting into North Korea in July — as well as the solicitation of child pornography and other crimes dating back to at least last year. The wide-ranging case against King, who spent over two months in the custody of North Korean law enforcement, includes eight distinct charges under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, according to court records obtained by Reuters. The Army claims the private had the intention of abandoning his military duties permanently when he ditched his South Korean post by running across the demilitarized border into the totalitarian country. He “did remain so absent in desertion until on or about 27 September 2023,” when the hermit kingdom r...

Jim Jordan makes impassioned plea to GOP colleagues to elect him House speaker ahead of a third vote

News- US

http://youtu.be/G_1nC0V-KjM Rep. Jim Jordan kicked off a third day of voting in the House with a history lesson, highlighting the herculean task before House Republicans to "step up" and elect him speaker by the end of the day. "I represent Wapakoneta, Ohio, Auglaize County, Ohio, hometown of Neil Armstrong, who 22 years after Chuck Yeager breaks the sound barrier, steps on the moon," Jordan said in a Capitol Hill press conference around 8 a.m. The Ohio Republican leaned on anecdotes from a visit to the Wright Brothers National Museum in his home state as well as his "favorite scripture verse" in brief remarks calling his caucus to action. "Stop and think about it," Jordan told reporters. "In 66 years, one lifetime, we went from two guys flying a hundred feet to putting a man on the mo...

Natalee Holloway’s mom says daughter ‘fought like hell’ before Joran van der Sloot killed her

News- US

http://youtu.be/Hb6fP1mI4Xg The chief suspect in the 2005 disappearance of Natalee Holloway has admitted he beat the young Alabama woman to death on a beach in Aruba after she refused his advances, then dumped her body into the sea. New details in the killing emerged Wednesday as Joran van der Sloot pleaded guilty to extorting Holloway’s mother. He sought a quarter of a million dollars to tell the family the location of their daughter's remains. His confession appears to resolve a case that has captivated the public’s attention for nearly 20 years. Van der Sloot's 20-year sentence for extortion will run concurrently with prison time he's serving for another murder in Peru. #nataleeholloway #joranvandersloot #bethholloway The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about ...

Jim Jordan fails in third bid to become House speaker

News- US

http://youtu.be/oWujG5jvwW4 Rep. Jim Jordan failed to win the speaker’s gavel in a third round of voting, with 25 members voting against him. Earlier Friday, Jordan kicked off the day with a call for House Republicans to “step up” and elect him by the end of the day to break the gridlock. The Ohio Republican compared the difficult task ahead of his colleagues to America having put “a man on the moon” in “one lifetime” — as he faces more than 20 members who have opposed his speakership bid thus far. “The quickest way to get all this work done is to get a speaker elected — that’s what I hope we can do today,” Jordan said. The founding member of the House Freedom Caucus has not received more than 200 votes to succeed ousted Speaker McCarthy as the next leader of the House of Representati...

Gaza Orthodox church shelter ‘hit by Israeli air strike’

News- US

http://youtu.be/q8BzWQvY55g A Greek Orthodox church in the Gaza Strip which was sheltering hundreds of displaced Palestinians was hit overnight by an Israeli air strike, the Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem and Palestinian health officials said.

News- US

http://youtu.be/5LBSpqFm074 Starbucks and the union representing nearly 9,000 of its baristas filed warring lawsuits on Wednesday after Workers United posted messages on social media declaring “Solidarity with Palestine!” in the wake of Hamas’ deadly attacks. NY Post Business reporter Shannon Thaler shares this story. Starbucks sued the union in Iowa federal court for trademark infringement, demanding that the union stop using “the Starbucks name and other identifying symbols.” The lawsuit said “customers [were] misled and confused over the source or endorsement” of Starbucks Workers United’s pro-Palestinian message because of the union’s name and the two entities’ similar circular, green-and-white logos.

American mother and daughter who were taken hostage in Israel released, Hamas says

News- US

http://youtu.be/On5zJNM-rW0 Two American hostages abducted by Hamas in early October have been released “for humanitarian reasons,” the terrorist group announced Friday. “In response to Qatari efforts, Al-Qassam Brigades released two American citizens (a mother and her daughter) for humanitarian reasons, and to prove to the American people and the world that the claims made by Biden and his fascist administration are false and baseless,” Hamas said in a statement, according to the Times of Israel.

Jordan bows out of speaker’s race, clears way for new House GOP candidates

News- US

http://youtu.be/HwQdkpNgIOM Hardline conservative Republican Jim Jordan's quest to become speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives ended on Friday (October 20) as his fellow Republicans revoked their support following a third, failed vote on the House floor, lawmakers said. Jordan told reporters that he had been honored to be a candidate but that the his caucus had informed him that he should drop out of the race. Republicans voted 112-86 to revoke Jordan's nomination in a closed-door meeting. The secret-ballot vote means the chamber will be leaderless and unable to respond to President Joe Biden's request for aid to Ukraine and Israel until next week at the earliest. Support for Jordan's candidacy faded over the course of the week. He received 194 votes in a third round of balloti...
